The last United States Figure Skating test that skaters take in any particular discipline is their Senior or Gold test. This is a huge accomplishment that must be marked by a huge dessert! So recent* skaters that I coached through their Gold test - their Senior Moves (also known as Gold Moves) and Gold Dance Test - were treated to dessert at the restaurant of their choice. Passing senior tests needs to be fun after doing all those patterns hundreds of times! A scrumptious dessert is a fun way to celebrate years of hard work, perseverance and determination!
*All senior / gold test passing students of mine who did NOT get a celebration dessert can redeem their dessert at a restaurant of their choice with me during Nationals 2017 in Kansas City. 🙂
Here's a list of skaters skaters passing senior tests:
Congratulations to you all!!! Your accomplishement is a testiment to tenacity, hard work, dedication and a willingness to take constructive criticism. "A dream is a wish your heart makes" said Cinderella. You all made your dream come true by doing things you didn't want to do. But in doing so, you achieved things you wanted to achieve. My wish for you each of you is that you take this sense of achievement and know in your heart you can do anything you put your mind to... because you can!
